The advent of ever more sophisticated information and communication technologies - including mobile and wireless - means that businesses are increasingly at risk from information security threats. Security incidents are already remarkably commonplace.

The good news is that, in the face of such challenges, there are a number of basic measures that any business can adopt to minimise its exposure to the security threat. Many of these are inexpensive, simple to implement and relevant to companies of all sizes.
